"The Lost Eichlers of Sequoyah Hills are among the rarest mid-century modern treasures in the Bay Area. Designed by Claude Oakland and Jones & Emmons, this Oakland Hills enclave of fewer than 55 homes showcases dramatic A-frame silhouettes, hillside views, and the enduring ethos of California Modernism. With extreme scarcity, strong preservation values, and close proximity to both nature and major Bay Area hubs, Sequoyah Hills represents a singular opportunity for buyers seeking architectural integrity and long-term value. Represented by the Boyenga Team at Compass—renowned Eichler specialists—this hidden neighborhood is as much an investment in history as it is in lifestyle."
Read More"The Greenridge Eichler neighborhood in Castro Valley represents a rare convergence of architectural pedigree, hillside views, and strong community values.

Today, Greenridge stands as one of the East Bay’s most compelling real estate enclaves—an appreciating micro-market where architectural scarcity, excellent schools, and community stewardship safeguard long-term value.

Read MoreSanta Clara’s Pomeroy Green and Pomeroy West are more than attached homes—they’re a living case study in high-density modernism and community design. Conceived by Joseph Eichler and architect Claude Oakland, these townhome communities fuse post-and-beam honesty, walls of glass, and private patios with park-like greenbelts, pools, and clubhouses. Pomeroy Green (a 100% owner-occupied co-op) offers uniform 4-bed/2.5-bath plans and comprehensive HOA coverage; Pomeroy West (condo/PUD) layers in one- and two-story options—including rare single-level atrium models—with conventional financing. Minutes to Apple, NVIDIA, Santana Row, and top commuter corridors, this niche outperforms generic condos thanks to fixed supply, architectural cachet, and a design-savvy buyer pool. Success here hinges on specialist representation: valuation must account for model nuance, radiant systems, and preservation; marketing must reach MCM purists; and co-op financing demands expert navigation. For buyers and sellers, pairing with Eichler experts is the strategic edge.
